Matt Redman is a British Christian worship leader and songwriter, and was one of the main worship leaders associated with the Soul Survivor organisation. He is now working with a church plant in Brighton, England. His latest Church was opened late in 2006 at St. Pauls Catholic College in Burgess Hill. He also works with Passion Conferences and an artist for Survivor Records (Six Steps Records in the US). Contemporary Christian music (CCM) artists such as Michael W. Smith, Rebecca St. James, and Tree63 have covered a number of Redman's songs. Some of his most popular songs include "Heart Of Worship", "Let Everything That Has Breath", "Once Again", and the 2005 Dove Award-winning "Blessed Be Your Name" (Worship Song of the Year).
Redman was formerly the worship leader for Soul Survivor church in Watford, and led worship at the annual Soul Survivor youth conferences. According to founder Mike Pilavachi, the Soul Survivor festivals (which began in 1993) grew out of worship sessions with him and the then 15-year-old Redman[1].
He has authored and edited multiple books on Christian worship, including The Unquenchable Worshipper and the book Facedown which accompanied the album.
Redman is currently (2005) based near Brighton, England, where he lives with his wife Beth (formerly of the World Wide Message Tribe) and Three children: Maisey, Noah, and Rocco.
Matt Redman's latest album Beautiful News was released December 26, 2006.
